Scream 7 Shifts the Stakes to Sidney’s Daughter in New Featurette
A new Scream 7 featurette is putting the spotlight exactly where it hurts most for Sidney Prescott: the people she can’t afford to lose.

Titled “Like Mother, Like Daughter,” the behind-the-scenes clip introduces Isabel May as Sidney’s teenage daughter Tatum (with a wonderful Scream 2 nod), establishing their relationship as the emotional core of the next Ghostface chapter.
Based on what we know so far, Sidney has finally built a quieter life, and then a new killer shows up with a strategy designed to reach her through family. The featurette leans into the idea that Sidney’s survival has always come with a cost, and motherhood turns that cost into a constant calculation. Neve Campbell describes Sidney choosing to be a mom as a major, considered step, while the footage and commentary stress how Sidney’s past is no longer just her burden to carry. Kevin Williamson, returning as creator and director, underlines the same pressure point: secrets, history, and the instinct to protect can become combustible when the danger comes back around.
The name drop carries its own weight, too. Tatum Evans is a direct nod to Tatum Riley, Sidney’s best friend from the original film, a tribute Campbell has called meaningful and fitting for Sidney’s life. And in a detail that makes the premise feel eerily cyclical, Tatum is positioned as roughly the same age Sidney was when Ghostface first tore through her world.
Beyond Campbell and May, Scream 7 brings back Courteney Cox, along with franchise and recent-era faces including Jasmin Savoy Brown, Mason Gooding, David Arquette, Roger L. Jackson, Matthew Lillard, and more, with Williamson directing from a screenplay credited to him and Guy Busick.
Scream 7 opens February 27, 2026, with premium format runs including IMAX, Dolby Cinema, 4DX, and ScreenX among participating locations.
